Highest of heels: Victoria Beckham was spotted strolling in New York this morning with baby Harper, wearing some very high platform boots

It's a good thing Victoria Beckham is an expert in walking in high heels.The designer took her newborn baby Harper for a stroll in New York this morning wearing a pair of platform boots that most mere mortals would struggle to stay upright in.

The 37-year-old was spotted wearing flats when she was first spotted out after Harper's birth, but quickly reverted to her cherished heels in no time.

With Manhattan full to the brim with fans and photographers during Fashion Week, Victoria has preferred to hold her baby daughter when she ventures out rather than pushing her in a pram.

This morning she cradled her daughter and covered her in a light grey blanket as they ventured out.

Beckham looked sleek in a pair of black skinny jeans from her own denim line and a leather jacket which she wore with the towering platforms.

And Victoria has ensured her already stylish daughter is not left out of the fashionable fun.
